Development of superhydrophobic ceramic membrane decorated with flake-like structure by two-step synthesis for seawater desalination by membrane distillation by Omar, Najib Meftah Almukhtar, Othman, Mohd. Hafiz Dzarfan, Tai, Zhong Sheng, Puteh, Mohd. Hafiz, Wong, Keng Yinn, Tan, Huiyi, Tonni Agustiono Kurniawan, Tonni Agustiono Kurniawan, Ooi, Boon Seng, Nomura, Mikihiro, Iwamoto, Yuji

“…Remarkably, a rejection rate of about 99.91% and a permeate flux of 24.3 L/(m².h) were achieved. Despite the presence of organic contaminants and various salts, this superhydrophobic HFM, prepared using a two-step technique, exhibited higher contact angles, rejection rates, and permeate flux than other superhydrophobic HFMs reported in the literature due to its superior superhydrophobic and antiwetting properties. …”
